Honda Accord

The Honda Accord & the Accord Hubcaps are part of a series that has mid-size cars that have been produced by Honda ever since 1976.

In 1982, the Honda Accord & the Accord Wheel Covers were considered to be the first Japanese car that was manufactured in the United States. Not only was it made here, but it was even made in countries like New Zealand, England, China, & even Thailand! If you'd assume, I guess you can say that this car is what people prefer worldwide; since it's manufactured in so many other parts of the world. You know?

The Accord, as well as the Accord Wheel Covers that came on it, has been pretty successful throughout its different generations. From the years of 1982-1997, it was known as the best selling Japanese automobile; in 1991 & 2001, there was about 10 Million of these cars sold! If you were to compare the tests that it went through back then and the tests that it goes through now, you'd see that even up to this day, the Honda Accord is considered to be one of the most reliable cars on the market as of this point.

Ever since it first came out, there has been a lot of different body styles & different versions of the Honda Accord. When it first came out in 1976, it was made as a compact hatchback - this style was used until about 1981. The lineup was eventually expanded to include a sedan, wagon, and even a coupe model with the "oh so very nice" OEM Accord Hub Caps on them. By the time it reached the sixth generation (around the 1990s), the Accord turned into something called an intermediate vehicle; it just had one basic platform - but with different bodies & different proportions so it can increase its competitiveness within the international markets.

The current Honda Accord that was originally released in 2008 is a little bigger compared to the other models. The reason why is because they wanted to move the car further upscale in the market. After this was done, the EPA (U.S. Environmental Protection Agency) considered the Accord to be a full-size car, but the coupe to be a mid-size one.
